UP FOR AUCTION IS THIS ENTIRE ESTATE COLLECTION OF TERRIFIC OLD POST CARDS. I PICKED THE BEST ONES OUT AND SELLING THEM AS A LOT HERE. THE OTHERS WILL BE SOLD IN A DIFFERENT LOT.
ALL THE CARDS IN THIS LOT ARE 1920'S AND EARLIER, MOST OF WHICH ARE FROM 1905-1915.
THERE ARE OVER 700, MORE LIKE 750 OR SO.
I STARTED SELLING SOME SINGLES FROM THIS COLLECTION AND HAD PLANNED TO DO THAT WITH ALL OF THEM BUT IT JUST TAKES MORE TIME THAN I HAVE TO DO IT. SOME CARDS THAT I DID LIST SOLD FOR AS MUCH AS $35.00 FOR A SINGLE CARD, THERE ARE TONS MORE LIKE THOSE IN THIS LOT.
THERE ARE ALOT OF OLD STREET SCENES SHOWING EARLY CARS, HORSE AND BUGGY'S TROLLEYS. THERE ARE SCHOOLS, RAILROAD AND RAILROAD DEPOTS & STATIONS, AMUSEMENT PARK RIDES, A FEW HOLIDAY AND ROMANCE (50 OR LESS) BUT THEY REALLY NICE SUCH AS ELLEN CLAPSADDLE, A FEW SANTAS, 4TH OF JULY, BLACK AMERICANA, I SAW ONE LEATHER CARD, THERE ARE REAL PHOTO CARDS, SOME IDENTIFIED.....THIS IS JUST A SUPER NICE COLLECTION AND IF I WAS GOING TO PRICE THESE FOR SALE AT A MARKET, A REALISTIC PRICE WOULD BE FROM $5 TO $25 EACH, A TOTAL RETAIL PRICE FOR THE LOT SHOULD EASILY BE $5000.00, WHICH IS ABOUT SEVEN DOLLARS A CARD, THERE'S LOTS OF CARDS IN THIS COLLECTION WORTH WAY MORE.
AS FAR AS CONDITION, SOME DO HAVE SOME ROUNDED CORNERS OR MINOR CREASES, NO TEARS OR RIPS OR TAPED CARDS. NO LINEN OR CHROME CARDS.
I'M SAYING 700 IN THE LOT TO BE SAFE IN CASE I MISSED ANY THEY MAY HAVE HAD CONDITIONS PROBLEMS THAT I DIDNT NOTICE.
ALL CARDS IN THE PICTURES ARE IN THIS LOT, PLUS LOTS MORE, I COULD ONLY UPLOAD 12 PICTURES TO EBAY, I DO HAVE 12 MORE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM, JUST ASK.
HIGH BIDDER PAYS $10 WITHIN THE USA TOWARDS SHIPPING, I'LL PAY THE REST AND ALSO INCLUDE DELIVERY CONFIRMATION AND INSURANCE FOR FREE.
GOOD LUCK TO ALL BIDDERS, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED IN THIS COLLECTION.
